A large number of logs are generated on the switch, as shown in the following.

Can you explain and advise how to troubleshoot the issue？

Hi Steelbule,
Please refer to the following information.

Description

Port attack defense is started.

Parameters

Parameter Name

Parameter Meaning

SourceAttackInterface

Indicates the attack source interface.

AttackProtocol

Indicates the protocol type of attack packets.

Possible Causes

When the device detects attack packets on an interface, the device starts attack defense on the interface.

Procedure

1.    Check whether the attack actually occurs on the interface. //In your case the source attack from interface g 1/0/0. From command “display arp”, you can determine which terminal/device may cause the attack. You can isolate that device from network.

2.    If an attack actually occurs, locate the attack source. If no attack occurs, reconfigure the port attack defense function to ensure that valid protocol packets can be sent to the CPU.

Please see the configuration example of enabling port attack defense.

You need to configure attack source tracing to locate the source attack. You can refer to the procedure as per the below link.
